Failed to install a Bin file.

Asked by RianXD

I am trying to install Savage2 , i have downloaded it, and it is currently on my desktop.

i did cd desktop
sudo chmod +x Savage2Install-2.1.0-x86_64.bin
the inputed my password, and did
./Savage2Install-2.1.0-x86_64.bin

however it tells me
bash: ./Savage2Install-2.1.0-x86_64.bin: cannot execute binary file

Can someone tell me what im doing wrong?
i have looked around and found nothing, i have installed many Bin files this way with no problem before, i have re-downloaded the file in case it was corrupt but that did not work, i still get this message.

Thanks, Rian.

Your OS is 32bit and you downloaded the 64bit .bin file. This won't work. You need the 32bit .bin file
